About this listen

There’s a baby in your house. It isn’t yours....

The day I was told I’d never be able to have a child, my world came crashing down. My husband says he still loves me, but I lie awake at night, wishing we could have a family.

One morning, my husband’s side of the bed is cold and empty. I hear a noise and head downstairs.

In the middle of the rug in my living room is a wooden drawer. Swaddled inside, with perfect rosy cheeks and beautiful round blue eyes, a baby gazes up at me.

I shiver. It’s all I’ve ever wanted, but this baby is not mine....

An absolutely addictive thriller with heart-pounding twists from beginning to end. Fans of The Woman in the Window, Freida McFadden, and Lisa Jewell won’t be able to put this jaw-dropping psychological thriller down!

The Baby is…

Super twisted and kept me on my edge of the seat!! Unique storyline and page turner, super addictive story, and it’ll leave you shocked. Totally worth reading and with that ending, it was so not expected.

Good story.

I enjoyed listening to this book except the woman in it was just too weak and dumb. I know how some men are mentally abusive and how it can be insidious over time and destroy confidence etc., but some things, we're a bit much to believe. Overlooking that, the book was very enjoyable.

Great Thriller!

I was really drawn into this audio book but I was disappointed that they used Christ’s name in vain. This will be my last listen to any books by A.J. McDine.

Much better than I thought

I held out on this even though audible kept shoving it in my face as a recommendation. I finally relented and was pleasantly surprised. Yes, the main woman is totally stupid and one day she's in love, obsessed with her terrible husband and the very next day she all of a sudden starts to question why he's talking to her in such a way. how shocking and original (actually it's not at all). but the story had some good twists and was slightly different than the average British domestic thriller.

This one was difficult

I don’t like to leave book reviews unless they are positive but it always irks me when the main character is a woman who the author makes into a complete fool who believes anything a man tells her, no matter how ridiculous it is. The performance saved it for me somewhat, Tamsin Kennard always does a great job!
